Hi folks. I’m about to sell a few pairs of skis but posting them in UK seems the tricky bit. Googling has led to further uncertainty. It seems some companies have very low insurance limits for loss/others expensive. One person recommended UPS. Who has had a good experience posting with which companies please?
Not skis specifically, but I posted a bike to my brother in Lancaster in the middle of one of the covid lockdowns using ParcelForce. It was collected from home and appeared at the other end the next day. It was the cheapest and most convenient I could find at the time.
No direct experience but the excellent Nordiclife.com sent me skis using UPS and they arrived quickly and in one piece. I've recently used Parcelforce to send a bike frame to Sheffield and they were a utter shambles. Possibly a one off as others on this thread report better experiences.
It was a few years ago but i was constantly buying and selling skis for my kids on Ebay. I used Hermes (now Evri) to post them all the time without any difficulty.
However secondhand is lower value and I appreciate this may not be the best insurable courier for you for new skis.
